New drug combo for first treatment of HER2-positive stomach cancer
This trial tests a new targeted drug (TDXd) combined with chemotherapy, pembrolizumab, and trastuzumab for people with HER2-positive stomach or gastroesophageal junction cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. It aims to see if this combination works better than standard treatments as a first therapy.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT07431281RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for advanced stomach cancer with CLDN18.2
This trial tests a new drug combination for people with advanced stomach cancer that has not been treated before. It looks at two groups: one with PD-L1 (a protein that helps decide if immunotherapy works), and one without. The treatment includes an antibody-drug conjugate (Sonesitatug Vedotin) plus standard chemotherapy, with or without an immunotherapy drug.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07366528RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing two chemo combos for stage III stomach cancer after surgery
This trial compares two chemotherapy combinations (oxaliplatin plus S-1 vs docetaxel plus S-1) for people with stage III stomach cancer who have had complete surgical removal of the tumor. The goal is to see which combination works better to prevent cancer from returning.
Shaoguan, GuandongAges 18–80 - NCT07374731Recruiting
Finding early signs of stomach cancer risk
This study looks for markers in the blood that could show if someone is at risk for stomach cancer or pre-cancerous changes. It aims to help catch problems earlier.
Aviano, PordenoneAges 18–100 - NCT01416714Recruiting
Tissue sample collection during cancer surgery or biopsy
This study is collecting tissue samples from people with certain cancers while they have surgery or a biopsy. It may help researchers learn more about these cancers and improve future diagnosis and treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT01945840Recruiting
Study how gut hormones change after weight-loss surgery
This study looks at how gut hormones and blood sugar control change after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. It may help researchers understand what supports healthier glucose levels after bariatric surgery.
London, Greater LondonAges 18–70 - NCT02047994RecruitingPhase 4
Testing and treatment for H. pylori to prevent stomach cancer death
This trial studies whether testing for an infection called H. pylori and using simple blood/screening tests (pepsinogen testing) can help prevent stomach cancer and reduce stomach-cancer-related deaths. You would be followed for health outcomes to see if the approach works better than standard care.
RigaAges 40–64 - NCT01344525Recruiting
Study of team-based therapy for obesity and weight loss
This study looks at an interdisciplinary, team-based obesity treatment plan and how well it helps people lose significant weight over time. You might be a candidate if you are an adult with obesity who already achieved more than 10% weight loss within about 6 months from a lifestyle program or weight-loss surgery.
HeidelbergAges 18–65 - NCT01917552RecruitingPhase 3
Capecitabine pill treatment after stomach cancer surgery
This study compares taking capecitabine pills after curative surgery versus no further treatment. It aims to lower the chance of stomach cancer coming back in people with stage IB disease that has extra risk factors.
